I have no problem with separate and equal of it includes different and equal.
Marriage is between a man and a woman. Although unmarried myself, I will never accept as equal, a union between two men, two woman, or a man and a woman, as equal in that they are inherently different in why they were created and the real sex of the people involved. The Homosexual unions will never be what my Mother and Father had.
Marriage was a creation to join, formally, a union between a man and a woman whereby whose actions might create children. This union would take care of the raising of these children.
Homosexual Unions are not about creating children and raising them.
There is overlap of course. A Heterosexual Union might be childless by choice or other reasons, but within a norm of society. A Homosexual Union might have children from a former relationship or adoption. Those children need the protections of a Union of two that might be stronger or better able to care for them then a single individual. But they are still inherently different.
One type can deliberately or accidentally procreate and the other can't, deliberately or accidentally, with their partner through a natural act.
Two people living together, heterosexual or homosexual, share housing, food costs. love(?) and time with each other, often acting as one. Is there a Government interest in creating formal unions that protect each individual in these unions and any kids involved? Yes. Is it marriage? Yes and No. Is it separate unions based on the type and sexes of people involved? Yes. One type, Heterosexual is called marriage. The other type, Homosexual, is called (?).
If some wackoos can have 62 different pronouns and types of sexuality, we can have different types of Unions. One is Marriage for a man and a woman, with or without the intent or ability to have children. The other type is just some other damn form of union and called something else. And you are not two wifes or two husbands, or a man called a wife or a woman called a husband. Find some different names to go with your pronouns.
Just my take on things
